Chapter 1197 At Your Own Risk?
Arthur roared, “Larson, this means war against the Ten Greatest Families! Are you sure you want a head-on confrontation with us? You’ve broken our rules, and even if Billy comes back, he won’t be able to say anything to help you out in this case!”
Giving him a snort, Matthew then said, “It has already come to this, and you still don’t understand what’s going on? I’m not the one who started a war with the Ten Greatest Families; you guys were the ones who started it first.”
A look of confusion appeared on Arthur’s face. “Who started a war with you?”
Loudly, Matthew said, “What did you guys do when I was faking death? I had no feud with you, but in the end, you ganged up with the other five families to take over my construction company as well as Cunningham Pharmaceuticals! So, who was the one who broke the rules first?”
Stunned, Arthur suddenly remembered that they were really the ones who started the trouble this time.
Back then, everyone thought that Matthew was dead, so they wanted to get a share by occupying the construction company and Cunningham Pharmaceuticals.
Unexpectedly, Matthew was still alive and came back to settle the scores with them, so he really wasn’t breaking the rules!
Gritting his teeth, Arthur argued, “B-But I already apologized, yet you’re still not letting me go. What do you mean by this?”
Matthew snorted. “Apologize? Hmph, you guys came to make a scene at my place and expected it to be settled after an apology? If I was the one who did that, would the Ten Greatest Families let me off?”
All of a sudden, Arthur had no words to refute.
“I’m giving you a chance. Scram over there and go down on your knees, then I can keep your family alive. Otherwise, I’ll wipe out your entire family!” Matthew said in indifference.
Blood rushed to Arthur’s face, but he trod over to the side obediently and kneeled down. Out of wits, he didn’t dare to say anything because Matthew had the upper hand now.
As for a master of another family, he quickly smartened up and stood at the side after seeing what happened to Arthur.
Finally, only the two most powerful families out of the Ten Greatest Families, the Leighs and Sandels, were not here.
Checking the time, Matthew saw that half an hour had passed, yet nobody from these two families had arrived.
While everyone was staring at Matthew, a sneer spread across Felicia’s face. No matter how aggressive Matthew was, as long as the Sandels and Leighs didn’t give in, it meant that Matthew wasn’t able to crush the Ten Greatest Families. After all, the other eight families added together were not as powerful as the Sandels and Leighs.
“Matthew, half an hour has passed, yet no one from the Sandels and Leighs are here yet! What did you say earlier? Oh, right. You said, they have to bear the consequences at their own risks. So, how do you plan to let them bear this consequence?” Felicia asked, her voice full of sarcasm.
The rest of the Cunninghams burst out in laughter; they were full of confidence as long as the Sandels and Leighs didn’t bow down to him.
Composedly, Matthew answered, “Be patient. You’ll find out soon enough.”
Then, he moved a chair and sat down in the yard, as though he was waiting for something. A few minutes later, a few cars came to a screeching stop in front of the villa entrance.
A group of people came down from the cars, and the one standing ahead of everyone was the crown prince, who was wiping off the blood on his hands as he sulked. “Matthew, did the masters of the four families come to your place? Why are you so quick? I was thinking of having a chat with them!”
Chuckling, Matthew then said, “Crown Prince, this is Eastcliff after all, so please show me some face. I have some scores to settle with them.”
With a wave of his hand, he answered, “Sure. You’ve saved my life before, so I’ll do you this favor. By the way, I’ll give you a couple of small toys.”
After he said that, his men dragged two men who were covered in blood into the yard, and they were none other than Robert and Johnny.
